SCRAPPY GOLF

 

Along Chouteau Avenue in Midtown. Get rid of your cans and hit a couple of buckets of balls. The central urban area seems like a strange place for a huge driving range but then people from all over the place (but not in this household) play golf and there is nothing else like it for miles around.

If You Say So


We went to the Earth Day festival in Forest Park. It wasn't so great. It gets more and more crowded and commercial. All of the exhibitors are trying to sell or promote something. The entertainment, at least what we saw, ranged from tame to lame. There was, however, one very cool show by the Wild Bird Sanctuary outside of town, which we will get to.

Sorting your trash and recycling whatever possible is a very good thing to do, but if you think it's fun your life needs an upgrade.

Skyline With Recycling Center

.
I'm sticking with the gritty urban theme today. Like many American cities, it is not unusual here to see to see down-and-out people carrying huge plastic sacks or pushing shopping carts full of aluminum cans. This is where they go. There is a little building on the lot under the sign where the metal is weighed and a small amount of cash paid. Just another part of the urban economy.

For the locals, this is on Chouteau between Grand and Compton.

TOMORROW: Thursday Arch Series.
